HV & EHV Cable Systems

Conductor:
The cable consists of stranded compacted copper or
aluminum conductor. Milliken conductors are used
above 1,000 mm2 to reduce skin effect. The individual
segments are insulated from each other. Semi
conductive tape may be applied over conductor.
Longitudinal watertight design is provided
depending on environmental conditions.

Conductor screen, Insulation,


Insulation screen :
All three layers are simultaneously applied by a triple
extrusion process, using supersmooth, super clean
HV/EHV grade raw materials with immediate curing
on the CDCC (Completely Dry Curing and Cooling)
line. High quality handling system is used.
Average insulation thicknesses are defined in the
tables; lower thicknesses for insulation may be
offered.

Lead alloy sheath supported with copper wire


screen:
Radial watertightness is provided by extruded lead
sheath.
The copper wire screen is placed under lead sheath.
Screen area is in longitudinally watertight design by
water swellable tapes. Short circuit current is shared
proportionally by the copper wire screen and lead
sheath. Lead sheath provides excellent corrosion
resistance.
Lead alloy sheath:
Radial watertightness is provided by extruded lead
sheath. Longitudinal watertightness is achieved by
using water swellable tapes applied under lead sheath.
Lead sheath carries the short circuit current. Lead
sheath provides excellent corrosion resistance.
All above types of metallic sheaths can be designed to
carry extra high short circuit currents.

Metallic shields:
Copper wire screen incorporated with copolymer
coated Al or Cu tapes:
Copolymer coated metallic tapes are applied over the
copper wire screen to provide radial watertightness.
Metallic tape is bonded to the polyethylene outer
sheath to provide excellent mechanical properties.
Screen area is made longitudinally watertight by
means of water swellable tapes. Geometrical cross
section area of copper screen is choosen to suit the
short circuit requirements in each individual application. Subject types have low weight design.

Optical fibre:
Above metallic shields can be optionally equipped with
optical fibers in tubes for temperature monitoring.

Outer sheath:
HDPE sheath is used in most cases which guarantees
excellent mechanical and electrical strength. PE
sheaths are halogen free. Flame retardant paint can be
applied on site to limit the fire spread in building and
tunnel applications. PVC sheaths are used with different formulas optimized for the purposes. PVC sheaths
are also used when higher fire performance is required.
Halogen free and fire retardant sheaths are used when
higher fire performance is required in building and
tunnel applications. In order to facilitate the testing of
the outer sheath, a conductive layer is applied over it.

Quality Control

High and Extra High Voltage Cable production requires


highest possible precision at manufacturing stage, similar
capable Quality Control experience and equipments in
order to achieve best quality.
Being aware of this fact Demirer Kablo gives utmost
importance to Quality Control, therefore continuously
making remarkable investments to state of the art testing
equipments as well as following up of new technologies
and keeping Q.C. personnel highly trained.
High quality raw material is the prerequisite for high quality
finish product therefore Demirer kablo uses only reputable
suppliers.
Some of our Quality Control Equipments and their
purpose are listed below in three Categories:

1.Quality Control Equipments:


a CSS2 Cleanliness Scanning System which detects
a.
any particulars prior to extrusion (x-head), warns, and
keeps image of the particular.
b Sikora X-Ray 8000 Wall thickness measuring device
a.
scans hot wall thicknesses and eccentricity of three layer
and warns if tolerance exceeded.

c.
c IPEC Ultrasense Ultrasound Flaw Detection
detects any bubble or protrusion penetration, measures
cold wall thicknesses of three layers, warns if tolerances
exceeded and keep log for future checking.
d Sikora X-Y Diameter Gauge measures cold diameter
a.
from both axis.

Site Services
Underground power cable lines are installed commonly inside modernized cities due toexistence of
highway crossings, bridges and many sophisticated
buildings. Underground power cable installation
enables non-disturbance of existing structures. XLPE
power cable technology provides a long-term reliable
system which does not require maintenance.
DEMRER KABLO well trained technical team is
capable of organizing, carrying out and performing
the tests of all kinds of HV XLPE cable projects
between 60 kV and 400 kV allaround the world.

Our Services
1) Supply and installation of XLPE underground
2) Supply and installation of power cable accessories
3) System design of power cable & FO cable systems
4) Project management.
5) Power cable installation civil works
6) Installation of power cable accessories, supervision, testing & commissioning
7) Fault location & cable repair
8) Training of customer personnel

Cable System Configurations

Both-End Bonding
Cable Terminations

Cable Terminations

This system is mostly designed for short


length of circuits. A current continuously flows
on the metallic screen because both ends are
earthed.
It will automatically reduce the current carrying
capacity in the conductor of cable while it
provides no touching voltage at both ends.
This is a common method for the short lengths
of open switchyards and transformer circuits.

Direct Earthing

This system is designed to prevent circulation


currents on the metallic screen of the cable.
This increases current carrying capacity of the
cable directly. Induced voltage over metallic
screen on the cable is proportionalto the cable
length and the current passing through the
conductor. Single-Point Bonding Method can
only be used for limited route lengths. Maximum length is limited by the screen voltage
induced at the open end (SVL side).

Cross-Bonding Method is commonly used for


long lengths of circuits to balance the
Impedances of the phases for flat formation
and to minimize the induced voltages occured
on the metallic screens of the cables at the
same time.
Transposition equalizes the impedances while
the cross-bonding connections made in the
link boxes minimize the induced voltages.
A current flowsthrough the metallic sheath
connections, but no significant current flows
through the screens.
